............. ADVENTUROUS CAT ASPIRANT! :)

18/11/07 Sunday:
I woke up from my slumber with dreams of scoring for Manchester United ......... of course I was watching GOAL II last night wat did you expect from me. Anyway I checked my watch and it was 8!!! :O
I woke up Durvesh and he is like haan ho jaayega. So quickly dressing up we left at around 8.30 or 8.45, w/o breakfast and of course zero preparation ........ I don't owe you an explanation now buzz off!!! Well we were travelling at a decent speed to get to the centre ..... there was only one problem we didn't know where it was!!! So we are on NH-4 (or 5 who cares anyway) and we decide to follow a board which said Kothrud with an arrow (that was where my centre was apparently) There was this car standing on the right side but he allowed us to go from his left, but out of the corner of my eye i noticed a Qualis going thru the same road at high speed. I yelled out CAREFUL!!! and then it happened ............... Don't worry no one died and only after fighting with a few people (who apparently were not even involved in the accident ..... this is India m'boy) I noticed a few scratches on my right leg.
Anyway we moved on and after asking a few directions We reached the place Law College ........ phew finally .......... except for one tiny meeny issue ......... My centre was supposedly at New Law College which according to the direction of the watchman was on the other side of the mountain (DAMN!! they don't even give directions properly in this country!)Durvesh seemed down and out ..... and i thought what to say now. "Lets go and have breakfast then lets move for Mumbai" :D Then too he seemed determined to atleast see the place, I said what the heck it was 9.35 already. So we moved about and following a guy who was going to give CAT stumbled upon BVPU Campus which had New Law College and it was 9.50 already!!!! There I was, the guy who didn't even want to give the exam suddenly scrambling my bags and running as if my life depended on it!
Well, you sometimes get the feeling life just wants to make fun of you ....... just for the heck of it, well this was one such day. There I am running from one building (which was the Management building) to another (New Law College .... finally!!) with my backpack and my 3 day luggage for home. I saw the seating arrangement ....... 6th floor. Well the injuries from the accident also didn't help much. I ran and ran and ran and ........ phew!!! finally i was there at 9.58 shoving the hall ticket in the hands of the examiner (I swear i would have yelled if he wouldn't have let me in!) getting all my stuff out, and finally i was there at my seat. A sense of glory filled me as if won a marathon or something. The paper came and went and i was already thinking about home after such a dramatic 5 hours!!
Attended the wedding in the evening again slightly late. Well the guests were leaving when i reached. Of course no one reaches for a wedding at 10 pm in the night!!! Finally i ate something for the first time since the vada pav in the afternoon. After all the fun with my cousins and all ....... I was off to a well deserved sleep :)
